Build a Culture for Sales Sucess

A sales culture must be intentionally constructed because it answers the question, "how do we sell?"

Too often culture is a vague set of norms that emerge from circumstances rather than from an intentional design. This is a problem because culture is enormously important in a selling organisation. Culture is the support structure on which the organisation sits.

Strengthening Your Sales Culture Module Overview

In this module, we teach 4 key areas of a Sales Culture Plan:

  1. Management Disciplines (Help drive Business Results) - Consistency in the execution of key management disciplines (e.g., One-on-Ones, Coaching, Pipeline Reviews, Team Meetings, etc.) can help you achieve your desired sales culture. Within your key management disciplines explore the frequency and duration of each discipline to set expectations with your team.
  2. Rewards and Recognitions – Here the manager explores ways (types, frequency, and venue) that rewards and recognitions can motivate and shape a sales culture. Additionally, the manager identifies his/her current approach to identify what is working and not working.
  3. People Development Methods – Here the manager identifies areas where new skills and capabilities need to be developed among the team and assesses ways to provide that development (e.g., on-the-job experience, relationships, and feedback, classroom training)
  4. Systems, Tools, and CRM – Here the manager determines the criticality of the current systems, tools, and CRM being used. He or she then determines the commitments to which he/she and the team will be accountable
